ORLANDO, Fla. -- Rasheed Wallace will complete the Detroit Pistons' new coaching staff and showed up here today to work with the team's entry in the Orlando Pro Summer League.

The Pistons have not made a formal announcement on Wallace's impending hiring, nor on any of the Oklahoma City assistants who will come to Detroit to join Maurice Cheeks' staff, but Wallace is on the bench for today's game against the Boston Celtics.

Wallace will serve the Pistons as a big-man coach after several weeks of discussions between the two sides.

Wallace played for the Pistons' 2004 championship team and concluded his 16-year NBA career after a comeback last season with the New York Knicks following a two-year layoff.
